was that was nervousissima. The first time that's been submerged have been been doing the territory, and

when they've said that there were five zones where they could be they've been repartied

Okay, let's get on with the lesson. We'll go back and look at Maria's entry in English now, just so that everyone understands everything that's going on. And of course, then we'll be talking a little. more about this in detail. So, as we know, we're joining Maria for her diary entry. The night of the search for the sunken treasure is already 11 o'clock, and she is exhausted. She would go straight to bed, but she wanted to write her diary entry first. Unfortunately, for us, she's written her diary entry. Otherwise, we wouldn't know what's going on. As the weather forecast had predicted yesterday,

which was Tuesday, it started to get very windy at lunchtime, so they waited to see what the weather would be like today, a Wednesday. It turned out to be. perfect. So they got the boat and she took Alejandra and Rory out to the spot where the Scottish boat had sunk 64 years earlier. As Maria explains, the story has almost gone full circle. Her grandfather witnessed the tragedy. Her grandmother discovered all the horrible details of it. They found the letters just a week ago and they learned of the whole story. My abuelo presensio the tragedy and my abuela was entered of the details. Ace one

We've got those We're going. Today the search for the sunken treasure has begun and Rory and Alejandro have been extremely excited. They spent the day on the boat. Maria has been swimming a bit

and the boys did two dives of about 50 minutes each. While they were diving, Maria was sunbathing and making sure that everything was okay checking the time they'd been under the water

and eating cherries. She was actually very nervous. They first did an exploratory dive just to check out the terrain and when they came up, they explained that there were five different areas where they could look for the treasure. The boys shared out the areas between them and decided the best thing to do would be to take two days to investigate all of the areas. So tomorrow they'll all get up early and continue looking. They have repartied the zones and we've decided that the best was to do it in two days.

So, tomorrow madrugaremos to continue looking. At half-past twelve, they'd already done the first dive and they were all very hungry. So they had sandwiches and salad and chatted or fantasized about their adventure and had a good laugh at themselves. It was all very funny.

About two o'clock before high tide they did their second dive. After 40 minutes, the boys were back on the boat and they explained that they'd found a barrel full of sand hidden among some rocks. So for the time being, their treasure is nothing more than an old barrel. But they've had a great time. It has been a day full of excitement, a bit of relaxation, a bit of sun, and of course, some sea. In fact, Maria thinks she's burned her shoulders a little.

And as it turns out, she had nothing to fear. No have passed no idea. Rory and Alejandro are very divertido. and me have much today. Rory and Alejandro looked

after Maria well. They made a good team and she's glad that she signed up to take part in the search

for the sunken treasure. Maria finishes by saying that a long day awaits them tomorrow. I think there

was actually something very interesting in that sentence that you read out there Carmen. Can we

hear it again? No I've passed nothing that's the one you mean? That's exactly

the one I mean. No has no of MEDO. We know what

Miedo is. Miedo is fear. And what we're talking about here is pass MEDO, literally to

pass fear or to spend fear in a sense. No I Pasado Nada de Miedo. And what Maria is saying is

that she didn't experience any fear. She wasn't scared while everything was happening. But there's a

slight difference between Tener Medo, which is normally the expression we would use for I am scared, for example,

I'm scared, for example, and passar Mido. You can't explain us a little the difference between these two concepts.

I would say that passar Mido is more when you are experiencing at that moment. Okay. But in the opposite, Tener Mido is when more in general.

Okay. So for example, be afraid of doing something Yeah. In advance. So you, you, Tener Medo

when you are scared about something that's going to happen and you pass meadow when it's actually happening to you For example, I'm scared to be on my own. I'm scared to be on my own at night. Paso Mido

when I'm only experience here. I'm scared when I'm on my own at night. So could you say, for example, Paso Mido when when I'm scared. Yes, so I'm scared

when I watch a film and a horror movie and I'm scared of the horror. Perfect, very well, okay. I think we've got assorted. Would I be right in saying

that we could potentially use Tener Mido in the two situations? But passar Miedo you wouldn't use that when you're talking in general about something that's going to happen. Exactly.
